Frequently Asked Questions
How much does professional audio editing cost?
Professional audio editing costs vary widely based on complexity, length, and quality requirements. Traditional hourly billing often leads to budget uncertainty and extended timelines.
AI Audio Expert uses outcome-based pricing with time-boxed packages starting at half-day rates. This approach eliminates budget surprises while ensuring professional results. Our packages include one revision and deliver within guaranteed timeframes, making project planning much more predictable.
What's the difference between AI and human audio editing?
AI audio editing tools are fast and can handle basic noise reduction, but they often create metallic artifacts and unnatural sound. Human editors provide better quality but are slower and more expensive. The best approach combines both.
AI Audio Expert uses AI for initial processing and speed, then applies human expertise for quality control and natural sound preservation. This hybrid approach delivers professional results faster than human-only editing while avoiding the artifacts common with AI-only tools.
How long does audio post-production take?
Audio post-production timelines depend on project complexity and length. Simple dialogue cleanup might take a few hours, while complex projects with multiple speakers and heavy processing could take days or weeks with traditional workflows.
Our time-boxed packages deliver results in half-day to one-day timeframes for most projects. AI-assisted processing speeds up initial work, while human expertise ensures quality. This approach typically reduces turnaround times by 60-80% compared to traditional audio post workflows.
